Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I just bought myself a Kitchen Aid mixer right before the holidays. It was on sale, there's a $50 mail in rebate, and I got $100 in gift cards (for a limited time) for the store I bought it in. So it was a really good deal. Too good to pass up...even if I should be saving all my nickels for Xmas shopping. I am hoping I can get some Xmas presents with my gift cards. Everyone in my fmaily needs pot holders, right?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Bet you have to pay them more than ten or twelve bucks an hour.
According to something my mother said she heard somewhere, all the airport security people in Israel are college grads who majored in security. (Not sure how accurate this is -- whether it's actually every security person or just certain jobs.)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Am in New Orleans. I have had a beignet and a po-boy today. (Not at the same meal)We walked around the Garden District for a bit. Nice weather.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It is lovely weather today. Don't forget to boil water, Sheryl.
Things are actually not terrible, considering? My grandmother doesn't need surgery and was able to stand up in physical therapy today. We're all just so exhausted at this point. At least I fixed the internet.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
A beignet, Sheryl? You're seriously falling down on the job.
I'm glad you at least have lovely weather and the internet, Dana. Did you get alcohol?

Still no alcohol! But I've been medicating with food. Gumbo fixes a lot of things.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I do feel like alcohol would be your best bet, given the water situation. I'm glad at least things aren't worse? because they sound plenty crappy for one trip.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Gumbo sounds delicious. I hope the universe backs off, Dana.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have a rating question. What movie rating would you give this drawing (NSFW, non-porny)?
I wonder if my sister is still in New Orleans. I think she is. Quite the congregation. Maybe I can get her to drink for you, Dana.
